The Head of the Forensic Engineering Department in the General Department of Forensic Evidence and Criminology in Dubai Police, Major Expert Dr. Eng. Muhammad Ali Al Qassim, revealed the death of two people of Asian nationality, after they were electrocuted while they were cleaning and maintaining a water pond for ornamental fish in a villa in Dubai.
He attributed the accident to poor electrical wiring, and failure to comply with security and safety requirements, as the company responsible for this does not have a license to engage in this business.
Al-Qasim said that as soon as the report was received, the competent teams went to the scene of the accident and inspected the place, and the two bodies were transferred to the forensic medicine, while the concerned authorities began investigating the circumstances of the accident, noting that after the inspection and technical examinations, it was found that there was a disconnection in the wire feeding the electric current to the electric pump, This led to the leakage of the current out of its path through the water, in addition to the presence of a wire manually tied to an insulating adhesive tape inside the water pool.
